I want to use this for an outside movie application. Am I correct to presume I could use a 3.5 MM stereo fitting out of my DVD player, and split to 2 1/4" jacks. Use one into each ch input and then have stereo output from the amp to the two speakers?

Hi, yes that is correct. This is a 2 channel amp, so if you were to use a stereo output split to 2 unbalanced TS quarter inch connectors you could connect those to these inputs. Then run speaker cables to your main speakers as left and right.

I just use 1/4 Stereo to RCA converters for the Main Out -- not sure on the tape out, I've never tried it.

My sound system receiver fried. I would like to hook this directly to my tv or dvd system. Neither of them have speaker jacks. They both have one rca out or multiple s video/audio spots. How does this hook into them? I do not see any outlets other than speaker wire.

Can I use 1 port for component Video & audio L & R from my DVD player while using a 2nd port going to my analog stereo system at the same time? (To hear the DVD audio through my stereo speakers while watching a movie)

Charles, I don't think that you can have the source(cd ,mp3 etc, running through both amps and connect the two) you would have to have the source run through both amps to hear and play the sound. Meaning connect the power of the amps together. No. Use the amp in a different set up elsewhere, and use the Pyle for the general use, its a great receiver! Randy

I do not have this specific receiver, but based on the specs and experience with similar receivers this unit has one additional powered zone supporting 2 (stereo) speakers and one non-powered zone. So I believe you could hook up 2 outdoor speakers directly to this receiver but would need an additional amplifier for 2 more speakers. Also, all the receivers I've used will not output a different digital source on the additional zones than the one being used in the main zone -- just analog sources. In other words, only one digital source at a time so if you to watch a Blu-ray inside while playing music outside, you'll need an analog input for the music. This can be a serious limitation depending on what you want to do, so you may want to find a manual online and check into that before buying.

I used to play DVD movie and it works fine. I never tried hook this to stereo but I think it can do as it has audio jack as well

Q: can you use this to power 4 6x9 speakers (150rms each at 4ohm) And how would you wire a high level imput into this amp? (stock head unit because they dont make an aftermarket one)A: You can buy the speaker line to RCA adapter to feed your speaker lines into the amp. I used an Audiocontrol LC6i in my setup but not necessary unless you want to add subwoofer and amps.I have a small amp for my speakers and one amp for this sub. 2ohms is how the shop I went to set it up. The amp I got was like $65 and it works great. I've had both for about 1.5-2 years now

It just so happens that I have two of these and a Y-jack for headphones, so I tried it. The requirement would be that you have a splitter (Y-jack) plus two USB ports available for two speakers. It did work, and of course was louder than just the one, but wasn't true stereo. I previously had a Y-jack that split stereo to mono, but I'm not sure where it is. If I find it I'll post the results here. Bottom line is you can't daisy-chain these, but with a splitter or even mixer (why?) you can make it work.

First, it will not be stereo sound, just a mono signal split into two channels. Second, you'll need a 3.5mm to 1/4" converter (http://www.amazon.com/Hosa-GPM-103-3-5mm-TRS-Adaptor/dp/B000068O3T/ref=sr_1_sc_3?ie=UTF8&qid;=1402407537&sr;=8-3-spell&keywo;rds=1%2F4%22+tp+3.5mm+converter)Thirdly: the jack on your stereo needs to be a "line in".Be careful not to turn up too loud or you'll blow your speakers. Best to buy a small 10w practice amp.

I have been using it as an external cabinet for my Bugera V5 since that amp has such a small speaker and it sounds great. I would also let you know that I got a different sound using the thinner Monster speaker cable as opposed to the GLS speaker cable which is much thicker. I haven't used it in stereo yet but I suppose I could try something like your setup. If I do I'll pass on the info.Hope this wasn't a total waste of your time.

Tom,Yep, did the test tone both from the Onkyo and BD player. All 6 speakers responded. I did set the BD player for PCM for all formats for 5.1ch. It's my understanding when using the Onkyo DVD Multichannel during playback, the Onkyo ignores its own speaker settings and uses whatever is coming from the BD player. Perhaps I need to tinker with the speaker settings in the BD player. Thanks,Dennis

Ran two 50'apart, rocked the campground with them. Only problem I see is your going to have a larger output on 1 side. Left or right will have 2 speakers. Keep in mind these are"fill" speakers. They"fill"an area with sound. My suggestion. Run the two then after if you need more I'd run two more on an A/B switch.

A quick visit to the Audioengine web site (hint!) shows (since I'm at work and cannot look at the back of my speakers at home...) that the system has two input modes: the four RCA (+/-, LR) connectors, and a 3.5mm stereo mini-jack. However, if your TV has only digital outputs available (which would seem odd, to me), some kind of converter would be required, I should think.

Justin, I believe I can help. But You need to give me more specifics. #1-What are you using this for , ( a home stereo, or a PA system or as an insturment amp?)#2-What are you plugging in to the rca jacks?#3-What brand of speakers are you using (be specific, Brand and model-please)#4-any other items you are plugging in or out of this amp#Show me a picture if at all possible (of you entire rig) This is a very good amp if you use it as is meant to be used. I'm only trying to help, (if I can_so include all the info that you can. Extralite Justin, I believe I can help.

The 1/4 output jack on my amp delivers sound to both L & R speakers on my stereo headphones. You'll need to investigate why this does not work for you.

I use regular speaker wire that runs from the back of my tuner (not my DVD player) into the speakers. I then run an output from my tuner into my DVD player. I hope this helps.
